Funk, Inc – Memphis Underground

Digital Crate Digging Continues per Music Monday as we proceed and continue with this bonus coverage! 

Still busy in this workshop even during this so called holiday season; we’re working it all out, the product will be above average!

We’ll “holla back atcha” with this good word and of course the sound, by now  y’all should know that’s how we get down!

Rebuking those that “try to get atcha” with the negativity, I know y’all don’t like the way that goes down! 

 We’re coming through listening to some classic jazz funk from Funk, Inc with their version of Herbie Mann’s  Memphis Underground!

Check out the players and the track, it’s going down!

Herbie Mann and Fire Island – Welcome Sunrise

Digital Crate Digging Continues as a Saturday morning morphs into a Saturday afternoon…

Bands of rain from Hurricane Delta intrude into the Atlanta area; chilling out letting the music play is the mood…

Afternoon Jazzing / O-Dog Day Partying? probably a little of both, feeling good after drinking the coffee / broth now moods are uplifted…

Soon spazzing due being in the heart of thing?  it’s  where the seven deadly sins of pride, envy, gluttony, greed, lust, sloth, and wrath dominate the landscape, as  priorities shifted..

Covid 19 and systemic racism are added into the equation; do the math while you’re on this path  or you’ll soon be caught up in the system / matrix..

Afternoon Jazzing / O-Dog Day Partying? doing both with Herbie Mann and Fire Island with  Welcome Sunrise; oh!! I see the sun peeking through the clouds!! I think we’re going to be alright , we’re gonna make it!

Herbie Mann – Walk On The Wild Side

Sunday Jazz Continues as this Fourth of July Weekend comes to a close; some have partied hearty..

It’ll be back to reality tomorrow; a weak one? arguments about pain and sorrow? rebuked by this O-Dog Day Party..

Jazz dance out of that negative circumstance? oh yes!!  don’t start it  is what I told a naysayer whether they debuted or they’ve been here for a while..

Advance during a debatable circumstance? being built or torn down? who’ll do the math then the aftermath after they check the style? 

Maybe you can dance, check the style as we continue O-Dog Day Partying; listening to some jazz funk / disco jazz from Herbie Mann with a track called Walk On The Wild Side..
